a new custom brick front fence in Camberwell – Pine Avenue.

Our services for this brick front fence in Pine Avenue, Camberwell included managing all aspects of the design, permit and construction stages.

– concept stage –

The concept design for this brick fence borrowed details from the house façade, including the colours, materials and replicating the lattice pattern from the verandah in the metalwork design.

Key design considerations for this project included:

• Design to be sympathetic to the existing home
• Design to accommodate a sloped block
• Design to accommodate a sloped driveway
• Minimising damage to existing landscaping

Our ‘order of cost’ included an estimate of costs, the project scope, general specification, health and safety requirements, assumptions and further investigative work required during the ‘develop’ stage.

– develop stage –

We provided recommendations for cost-effective consultants including a draftsman, structural engineer, geotechnical engineer and a building surveyor.

We managed the design team and performed site inspections to confirm the location and depth of in-ground services including power, water, gas, Telstra, NBN, sewer and stormwater.

As the maximum height of this brick fence was 1.5m and the property was not encumbered by any covenants or overlays, neither report and consent nor a planning permit were required.

We managed the building permit application process on behalf of our clients and provided them with copies of all stamped documentation, permits, insurances and certificates.
